You're welcome. We've had ours since 2002 and it still looks brand new!

Wow - roasting pans that don't last! What do you do with them! Mine come from my grandmother and my mother LOL :)

Uli I have no idea what I do to them! I have le creuset casseroles etc that I have had for years but roasting pans goodness knows! I think that I need to look after them like my le creuset pans. Thanks m41 and will look at Scanpan as well! I will have a look at Moore Wilsons as they seem to have a wide variety.

I'd just like to be able to find one big enough for a decent sized chicken or piece of meat and the veggies around it - I like to roast my meat or poultry on a rack so the fat drips through and bastes the veggies so I don't want the rack to be the size of the pan because I want to turn my veggies.I've given up looking now and just use the grill pan from my oven because at least it's the full width of the oven but then I can't do the gravy in it because it's too big to use on the stove top.

Me too. The modern ones seem to be coated with something (not non-stick) that starts to lift and chip after a relatively short time. I don't use metal utensils in them either. My mother has one that she has had for 30 odd years and it is still good!

Hey sarahb5, the Miele roasting pan I've given a link for is HUGE! W x D x H: 15 x 14 x 3½ " For 16-20 servings (atleast!)

Fendi3, the one that Carlos linked to is for sale on here for $300 buy now. It is in Auckland, pick up only, but I'd be happy to if you're interested, or someone may be closer by. we have friends up from Wellington this weekend, but I suspect they'll have enough luggage.

Yeah I saw that but the second link (the Aussie one) wouldn't load for me unfortunately.It's quite an investment and money I just don't have at the moment (made redundant last week) so I might not need to worry because if I don't get a job I won't be able to afford meat anyway!

I bought the Baccarat ID3 grill and roast pan - has an induction plate on both the pan and the lid - its great you can brown the meat on the element and then put it into the oven as well as using the lid as a grill plate

Fair enough too. Sorry to hear about your job situation - all the best with that, and the Miele roasting pan will always be available to buy online anyway, if you did ever decide to buy one ;o)

Mine is the same as Uli's.I've had it for decades and it doesn't stick or burn despite very heavy use.I can't remember where it came from, it was cheap, and it looks like this.It has a dimpled lid for covered roasting.
The one with the dimpled lid is nowadays called "self basting" as I guess the steam condenses and then drips off the dimples back onto the meat. Works a treat.
If you have no money to buy a new one then check out the local Hospice shop, Red Cross shop or any other op-shop you might have in town.

I have a scanpan and, and use it most days. Would definitely buy another, should I ever have to.

I'll do my best - Mr 17 discovered a recipe on Facebook yesterday for No Bake Nutella Cheesecakes which I think he's going to make for our desserts only meal at Christmas
